The Chosen Few is the second album from hip hop collective Boot Camp Clik, the first album released from the Clik or any affiliate since 1999. The effort received very strong reviews, and the singles "And So" and "Think Back" received moderate video play. The Chosen Few was the first Boot Camp album released on an independent label, with sales reaching just over 60,000 copies in the United States. The album features seven of the eight original members, Buckshot, Smif-n-Wessun, Sean Price of Heltah Skeltah and O.G.C., with Heltah Skeltah's Rock being the only absent member.
